Her career blossomed quickly in one of the foremost PR agencies in Los Angeles, where she designed multi-touchpoint campaigns for large corporations, such as Kelloggs, Sony, Wells Fargo, New Line Cinema, Pacific Gas and Electric, among others.

She has designed and executed many programs and events for conscious organizations and leaders around the world, including motivational speaker and athlete Bill Bradley, modern mystic Thomas Hübl, renowned theologian Matthew Fox, visionary Stephen Dinan, and more. Most recently, she was the foundation director of The UPLIFT Foundation.
